The magazine people also rave about how narrow the AT is. Well, it is still a parallel twin and that is much wider at the foot pegs than the 950 V-twin.

Read our 2017 KTM 1090 Adventure R vs. Honda Africa Twin showdown here! Compact and powerful, the LC8 V-twin is the workhorse of KTM’s street bike lineup.
Honda have fixed this for 2018+ and onward, ignoring 2016 - 2017 owners. KTM apologized and claimed that there must be a defect, then "overnight-ed" my shock to a WP tech, then the dealer gave me a demo 1290 Adventure R for the week that my shock was away. (!) As for the engine, the AT engine is a masterpiece.
